Time for the selectors to start blooding some young stars of the future and dispense with these non-performing name brands.
More the problem is flat decks is they've been dished up the last couple of years. Don't get any chance to play on moving decks. Until we do then we'll have difficulty.
Sub continent spinning decks I've given up on. No-one is winning, we're not the only one's. there's just no way to practice in those conditions. Unless you have a world class spinner, making sub continent countries think twice about serving up dirty, dusty diabolical turners, we, nor anyone else will win there.

Went for stroll around the Hobart waterfront in my lunch hour today, glorious cricket conditions, 18 or 19, sunny with some clouds, slight southeasterly off the river. Perfect, and has been for 3 days.
I'm telling you this so that when you tune into try to watch/listen/follow the first day tomorrow, and the next probably....and see the weather that has been dished up, you don't think that this cr@p is what is "normal" !!
cheers
Mal.

Morale shot, sent in on a green deck.... All out for 40 I reckon.
Voges has to go, simply no idea against decent bowling.

5/16, we are officially a laughing stock.

Abbott.. GET OFF THE FING PITCH OR YOU'LL GET RUN THROUGH AS WELL.

Since the lad Hughes got killed it's fecked up the heads of our lot!
They cannot distinguish between cause and effect, and accident and an action. Crap as it was, the kid could have stumbled on the way out to the pitch and hit his head on the fence and been killed. Or he could have slipped in the shower at the hotel while getting ready for the game.
Boof has been through this, he was a shadow of himself after Hooke's death!
We need a clean sweep, players, coaches, managers, administrators, etc., etc.. They are never going to be any good, it's over for this lot!
Weather permitting you might find SA making +350 on the same pitch, close the door, turn out the lights, and hand the keys back Australian cricket is dead!
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 11-12-2016
Is there some rule that says that any Australia hit on the pad is automatically LBW?

The problem is the lack of bat!
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 11-12-2016
Our blokes try to pick up the ball early and commit to playing a line. Works on flat pitches but any movement and they're shot. Watch the Voges dismissal... Commits early and made no allowance for any variation and a soft, soft dismissal.
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 11-12-2016
Can't see Mennie playing a lot of tests, doesn't look like a wicket taker... Lack penetration and doesn't move it around. How he got a game before Sayers or Bird, well only Marsh knows, because I don't see it.
